[Woodcarver] Relief carving

[Bill Judt]

Mike:

Three tools for relief???
Wow, that's a tough one. I am going to be "second-guessed" on this one!!

I usually recommend a starter set of 12 (my selection) plus another 6  
if budget allows, for a total of 18 tools.

But since you asked for only three...

Get one of each:
1. 12-6mm V-tool
2. 3-16mm gouge
4. 2F-12mm chisel

Hope this helps,

Bill
